A Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is A (Ukraine in 1986). The Chernobyl nuclear disaster occurred in 1986 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in Pripyat, Ukraine (then Ukrainian SSR, Soviet Union). The UN did declare that the emergency phase was over in Ukraine. The disaster did not occur in Russia (1986 or 1987) or Belarus (though Belarus was affected by fallout, the plant was in Ukraine).
